Every line of code, every weld, and every design decision exists for one reason: to build systems that perform when the mission demands it.

We build for real missions.

At Orbital Operations, we’re not building demos we’re deploying assets that matter. The missions we take on are urgent, strategic, and built to make a difference.

From cryogenic propellant management to in-orbit thermal systems, we work on problems that few teams dare to tackle. This is frontier tech, and first-of-its-kind systems, designed for defense, orbital security, and the future of space operations.

At our California headquarters and propulsion test facility, hardware moves rapidly from design to fabrication, testing, and qualification. Purpose-built vertical stands, full engine firings, and continuous iteration shorten the path from concept to flight-ready systems. This is where hands-on engineering becomes orbital capability.

We solve hard problems.

We build through experience.

We’re an experienced group of engineers, operators, and builders who’ve launched rockets, led programs, and solved at-scale aerospace challenges. Titles don’t matter—execution does. We move fast, support each other, and share a singular focus: orbital agility.

Think

Systems engineering:
Complex problems begin with disciplined engineering.

Hardware Development:
Ideas become flight hardware through rapid iteration and hands-on fabrication.

Hot Fire Campaigns:
Every subsystem is validated under real operating conditions before it earns its place on orbit.

Mission Readiness:
The goal isn’t a successful test. It’s a successful mission. We don’t stop until there is certainty.
